APA
APA is the most commonly used referencing style at universities of applied sciences in the Netherlands. At NHL Stenden, we also use the APA style when referring to sources.* The APA style was drawn up by the American Psychological Association.
APA is not only a format for writing papers, but also a way to refer to sources. It provides guidelines for source citations, quotations, paraphrases and source list construction. The library has developed, in some cases in collaboration with other libraries, several products and services that can help you to apply APA.
The APA infographic will help you to find the right information about APA.
